Abstract
Pectolytic, yellow‐pigmented, Gram negative bacteria formed 3·3% of the organisms isolated at 23° from fresh cauliflowers, and may contribute to deterioration of this vegetable in storage. The bacteria attacked glucose oxidatively in the Hugh & Leifson (1953) test, were nonmotile and oxidase‐positive, conforming to definitions of the genus Flavobacterium. These strains showed differences in morphological and physiological properties from F. pectinovorum NCIB 9059, which has properties resembling those of Cytophaga spp.Keywords
